[Lady Serpentine]

[Gaunts]

Aira smiles, going to kiss her again.

[Motel]

"Hm... You get along with other elves okay, right Sherry?"

[Beans]

[Gaunts]
She kisses back, giggling.
---
[Motel]
Sherry nods, grinning.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Gaunts]

Aira holds the kiss for quite a while, though, eventually, it will have to end, at which point she grins happily at the Flyer in her lap, snuggling close.

[Motel]

"Come on, then... I'm pretty sure I know someplace you'll like."

And, with that, she goes to lead the three off to Hollow Hill, which, assuming they follow, is pretty much the same as before, though Lellienth (presently between songs) is now the one providing the music.

[Beans]

((Might try starting the musical tonight.
Just to remind you, we basically put an alternate version or versions of our characters into a different situation (this one being a space research station!) and the songs are usually done by posting the lyrics, often modified to fit the situation, with a link to the song on youtube.))
[Gaunts]
She giggles. "Turning Gaunt got me friends and a cute squeeze. I'm glad I said yes."
---
[Motel]
And off they go!

[Lady Serpentine]

(())

[Gaunts]

The Griever nods, smiling.

"I'm glad you did too... I got the same thing out of it you did, and it's nice that I could help both of you out. But didn't you have that before, to some extent? I know you and Kilari were at least friends, and she's pretty cute too..."

[Beans]

[Gaunts]
Well, we were just close friends. There was a time or two here and then where we tried, but it never changed how we were really.
((DING! :D))

[Lady Serpentine]

((My eyes, they bleed! It seems Carrie's speech color was really not intended to be read in spoilers...))

[Gaunts]

Aira nods.

"Makes sense... Kind of like me and Theia. She's nice, and pretty, but we just don't click like that."

[Beans]

[Gaunts]
Mela nods, nuzzling.

((Sadly it is so. ))

[Lady Serpentine]

[Gaunts]

Aira smiles, stroking her wing membranes.

"D'you want me to work on expanding one of our rooms, or combining them, at some point?"

((Fortunately, Spreagadh's shows up better. Though her name seems somewhat out of keeping with the aesthetic, so it seems no-one is without problems. ))

[Beans]

((Hey, no problem. I gave all Carrie's Aspects Gaelic names so it sorta fits with Carrie being there.))
[Gaunts]
She nods, giggling.
Does that make us giiirlfriends?

[Lady Serpentine]

((True... Also, I suspect Google Translate is messing up. What do the names of her Aspects mean?))

[Gaunts]

Aira grins, and nods, seeming much more cheerful than usual.

"Yep!"

[Beans]

((Fiain means "wild" i.e. adventurous, Sioda=síoda means "silk" i.e. delicate, Cineal=cineál means "kind"))
[Gaunts]
She kisses her again, grinning, and wraps her legs around her waist.

[Lady Serpentine]

((Huh. Looks like it got everyone but Cineal, then... For some reason it thought her name meant 'type'.

Oh, and just to make sure you saw it, I posted in the musical thing.))

[Gaunts]

Aira happily returns Mela's kiss, not breaking off for more than a few seconds at a time.

[Beans]

((Saw it, but I think I'd better wait for the other two to post first.))
[Gaunts]
She giggles.
So... off to bed with us?

[Lady Serpentine]

((Ah, I'd missed that there were others. Who else is in it?))

[Gaunts]

The Griever nods, setting to work removing the Flyer's clothing.

"Off to bed sounds good."

[Beans]

((Shiro and iElf.))
She'll go with her, beginning to undress. She giggles excitedly.

[Lady Serpentine]

((

Do normal Grievers have the stuff with their hands that Jen does?))

Aira grins at Mela, apparently just as excited, and helps her undress, hands getting rather wandery as she does.

[Beans]

[Gaunts]
((No, that's a mutation thing.))
Mela reaches for the curtain!
---
Theia gets back from hunting with a deer over her shoulder.

[Lady Serpentine]

Curtain!

----------

Kilari smiles, coming out of her room.

"You want some help with cleaning that, Theia?"

[Beans]

[Gaunts]
She nods.
Um, yeah, thanks...
She's still a bit unnerved by the skills of the Creeper, but respects them.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Gaunts]

Kilari smiles a bit, and goes to make good on her offer of aid.

"Is something up? You seem a bit nervous or something..."

[Beans]

[Gaunts]
Well, uh, it's just, um... it's cool how you make your voice do things and all, but it's kind of alarming and stuff.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Gaunts]

"Oh. I can see how it might be, yeah... Anything I can do to help you be less alarmed?"

[Beans]

She shrugs.
I don't really know, sorry.

[Lady Serpentine]

The Creeper shrugs as well.

"I guess just working together and such, then... It'll probably help if you have a reason to trust me other than just our being in the same hive."

[Beans]

She nods.
Yeah, that's probably true...
They'll get the deer cleaned; she gets it ready to be smoked.

[Lady Serpentine]

The Creeper helps with that as well, if Theia seems to need or want the assistance.

"You said something earlier about keeping people from using this, right? Any thoughts on how?"

[Beans]

Well, if we make it really unpleasant-looking from the outside...

[Lady Serpentine]

"Sounds good. Unpleasant looking how, though? It has to be something we don't mind living with, after all..."

[Beans]

Blood smears on the outer walls, scattered skeletons and stuff...
